Came across it while Googling.
Different to the other sites I use but very refreshing.  Appears to be a site of very helpful people.

I don't care how I found it!  I am just so glad that I did!
It re-instates my belief in the basic decency of the human race.
I send my thanks to all RootsChatters!!

I was told about Rootschat from a contact in New Zealand.
I've had so much information from the site, everyone is so kind in doing look-ups from all over the world.

Truly a fantastic site.

Found it only about a month ago through a message board on rootsweb (I think). Took me about 2 mintues surfing the site to decide to register. Absolutely magic site - everyone's so helpful - willing to give their time. Restores your faith in human natue.

I'll be here for a looooong time.

I googled geneaology forums and hey presto here I am.  I only found it a week ago and already have been given dates of death for my grandparents and have had beautiful photo restores.  What a lovely bunch of people here.
